Who writes PredictReport

PredictReport covers prediction markets from four angles: the platforms and their mechanics, the law around them, the odds themselves, and the guides that tie it together. Each beat publishes under its own byline. Here is who covers what, and the standards every article is held to.

How we work

House bylines

Alex Copert, Miriam Velde, Tomas Orgato and Arnold Vezcasi are PredictReport's house bylines: one per beat, so you can follow a topic from one article to the next. Their portraits are illustrations. Everything published under them is held to the standards below.

Live numbers, not screenshots

Odds on PredictReport come from Polymarket's and Kalshi's public market data and refresh every ten minutes. Articles quote prices with the date they were taken, and link to the live tracker for the current figure.

Primary sources first

Fees come from each platform's own documentation, rules from its rulebook, and legal developments from the filings, rulings and bills themselves. Where a number is self-reported by a company, we say so.

Open about how we earn

Some links on PredictReport are affiliate links, including links to Polymarket, and we may earn a commission when you open an account through them. It costs you nothing. Sign-up offers are labelled as ads, and the full list is on our offers page.

Corrections

If something we published is wrong, tell us at support@predictreport.io and we will fix it. Nothing on the site is financial, legal or tax advice.
